A map data creation device creates map data, the map data being used for autonomous movement by a vehicle (), a vehicle () and/or other vehicles (), based on a relative position of the vehicle () which exists around the vehicle (), relative to the vehicle (), the relative position being measured by the vehicle (), and object shape data of an object which exists around the vehicle (), the object shape being measured by the vehicle (). Moreover, the relative position of the vehicle () relative to the vehicle () is calculated based on the object shape data measured by the vehicle ().
